ABOUT THIS ART

The framing option for this RUN includes a 1 inch black wood frame with UV-glass, foam core backing and ready to hang hardware.

"The Break Thru print was based off the month of April from my recent 12 Months exhibition. What is unique about this print is that I’ve re-adjusted the colors and parts of the design to make a new, but similar style. I painted the original canvas design using stencils, and acrylic paint. It was a challenging design to stencil as there were 15+ different layers to register into place.
The title is reflective of the new direction my artworks have been heading. Break Thru is the turning point for the newer styles I’ve been exploring. I’ve also decided to lead with my family name, Tavar Zawacki with my artworks as well. This was a normal progression for my fine art practice." - Tavar Zawacki aka Above
